I like art. I get what your saying. I like roller coasters, hp lovecraft. Love the game subnautica because the open ocean is spooky.

But the pain is what you’re enjoying and that’s fine. It doesn’t make it not disgusting, or scary, or painful.

That actually loops back to my comment. Those things are enjoying a discomfort in a safe way. Like humor. It’s like a practice or immunization. in my opinion, im not an expert just a guy who has time to talk)

To be clear im not saying “all jokes therefore are fine and people need to be less sensitive “ just like im not saying “all jokes are inherently bad”.

This is a shitposting community. I’m was bored and just talking about a thought.

    Yeah, but... I wouldn't describe a roller coaster as "painful."

    Like, I understand the connection you're making, but I really have to stretch my words to get there.

    I just, I think you've found a frame to better understand the world through, and you're applying it to everything, even when it might not really make sense to. You're using the concept of "pain" as if it were a fundamental atom of the universe.

    It would sort of be like describing an orange as "painful" because the flavor of an orange includes acids.

    To be clear im not saying “all jokes therefore are fine [...]

    I'm not accusing you of anything, don't worry.
